Chapter 84: The Tale of the Gourd Stealing the Pig

The proprietress didn't count Jin Shan so powerful! can solve the case with one word, which also proves that her vision is not good, and she can only accept her fate when she finds a husband who is not serious enough to play games. It's hard to play a game, but the living crime is uncomfortable, and the death penalty can be avoided, which broke her dream, and she had to start all over again.

This is an explanation, the two of them were assigned to the frontier with both hands, for a hundred taels of silver, and as a result, they made such a result, which can be regarded as a contribution to the frontier, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and if you want to return to your old business, it is estimated that you will have to work hard, and you must meet the conditions.

There is no hope of coming back in this life, it is better to have children there and start a family to continue the incense, there is no room for particularly smart people here, Jin Shan's judgment like this, let the people support it, and eliminate the black sheep, maybe it will make this place better. This is a wish, not necessarily possible, he is trying to change the place, establish local righteousness, and let the unhealthy tendencies leave here.

After Jin Shan finished handling this case, he felt very tired, and just wanted to rest, someone came to beat the drum to voice his grievances, and the complaint was an old man.

He was tall and slender, with a hunched back and a weak voice, as if he hadn't eaten, as if his heart had been stolen, and now he was a lost soul, without any spirit. He came to sue, but he was not ready. But the drum beating is quite strong, just venting the anger in my heart, especially wanting to beat the bad guy, but I don't know where the bad guy is. It's like trying my best to hit the air, and in short, he is so angry.

The person the old man sued was his neighbor, because the neighbor was short, like a gourd, that is, a pumpkin, a pumpkin that even pigs refused to eat, and the pig was involved, and the thin and tall old man didn't want to report this gourd, because the gourd is always lazy to eat, the family is surrounded by walls, and he lives by stealing chickens and dogs.

The old man didn't suspect that it was him at first, because the rabbit didn't eat the grass by the nest, how could he say that the gourd and he had some kinship, so as not to steal the relatives' pigs, there was no suspicion, because he was single, and he expected to raise a pig to kill and have meat to eat during the New Year, who would have thought that the pig would grow slowly, and it would only weigh sixty pounds after growing for more than ten months, which is more important than anything else. If you don't get meat just by eating food, this pig should be killed. It's just that the right butcher hasn't been found yet, or the right opportunity and time has not been found. This matter was delayed, who knew that someone hit this idea, the old man never thought that there would be a pig thief, only heard that there was stealing money and stealing gold and silver jewelry or other treasures and stones, I didn't expect to hit the idea of a stinky pig, you know, more than 60 pounds of pigs actually have a lot to improve, the pig is his hope, can bring a good future, whoever steals the pig, is equivalent to burying his good future. A lot of plans are built on the premise that after there is money from selling pigs, it is difficult to move an inch without money.

Pigs are valuable, pigs can't speak, and when they get into the hands of thieves, they can't run, in the eyes of thieves, pigs are meat, where do you care so much? The old man lost the pig, heartbroken, wanted to scold the street, and his words were short, he would not scold people, and he could only scold his mother repeatedly, and it was very difficult to have a little more vocabulary, and others heard him scolding the street weakly, so they expressed deep sympathy, and some people took pity on him, saying that they saw the pig thief.

"Can this pig fly? Nothing happened? The old man asked.

"No, pigs can't fly, they must be people, they must be scuds, they are old thieves, such thieves are very experienced, they can steal things, they can carry things, they are not bored to work, when they steal, they are full of power and interest, they can't look at them directly, such people are all around us. You can think about it and you'll know who it is. The well-wisher said.

"So, I'm actually a pig, and I don't know it's been stolen. This thief really deserves to cut off the oil pot with a thousand knives and be tormented, and go to the eighteenth layer of hell! The old man said hatefully.

"Yes, just scold like that! When he came out, he reported to the police and arrested him. The well-wisher said.

As a result, as soon as the old man shouted, he immediately jumped out of a gourd and said loudly: "Who are you scolding?" I didn't steal your pigs! Don't curse there! ”

The old man suddenly remembered what the well-wisher said, and hurriedly asked someone to report to the official, and then stared at the gourd tightly, and when the gourd saw this situation, he was frightened and soft, and hurried back to the house, not daring to come out.

The old man knew in his heart, this person must be a thief, I really didn't expect that the rabbit also began to nest on the edge of the grass, let alone relatives? It's good now, but if you can't even do it, your relatives can't do it.

Soon, someone from the county government came, captured the gourd, and sent it to the county office, and the gourd did not intend to run, just like the dog badger, if someone came with a fork and wanted a fork, it was not to run away, but to run towards the person, running very fast, and when the person had not yet reacted, he escaped, because according to people's ideas, the dog badger should run forward, not at the person. This gives the impression that perverse thinking often wins. Normal thinking often fails.

The gourd was taken to the county office, and it happened to be Jin Shan, who asked, "Are you a thief?" ”

"The little one is not, sir! The little ones are the ones who follow the rules! The little one has always been honest, how can he be a thief? Doing those businesses of stealing chickens and dogs will affect my good reputation, and the gentleman will not do it, but the villain will do it. Ugua said.

"A good gentleman is not for villains, it seems that you are a good person and a gentleman!" Jin Shan said.

"Although I can't say that I am a very upright gentleman, at least I don't steal or rob my honest duty to live my life, but I didn't expect the grass to harm the township." Ugua said.

"Hugh is talking nonsense, you don't look like a good person, five short and three thick, your eyes are uncertain, you move left and right, you roll your eyes up and down, keep turning your eyes, you are trying to harm people, your facial features betray you, your behavior betrays you, you still want to quibble, you are a thief!" Jin Shan said.

"You can't be an official like this! Speak with a solid basis and convince people with reason! Adult, you look at the villain, the poor are a little poor, but if you have ambition, it is not your own, you must not take it, let alone steal, if you want to follow the rules, how can you ruin your reputation for dozens of catties of pigs? Ugua said.

"Wait, you said dozens of pounds of pigs?"

"Oh, yes, oh, no." Ugua said, admitting and denying it.

"What's going on? How much does it weigh? Jin Shan asked.

"According to visual inspection, there are about sixty catties, no one has weighed it, and according to experience, eight or nine are not far from ten." Ugua said.

"Are you kidding? Can you see with such accuracy, which master is the one who pointed the way? Jin Shan asked.

"It's not the guidance of a master, it's the common sense of life. I'm short, and pigs stand taller than me. The small one wants to steal the pig, but it can't be moved, the pig is not stolen, maybe it will also cause a pig smell, the small one is greedy again, and wants to eat meat, so he goes to buy something to eat, and he can't steal it, besides, a small bachelor, stealing a pig weighing dozens of pounds, can't eat it, it will definitely be bad. Another point, there is a characteristic of pig stealers, I don't know if adults know? Ugua said.

"I don't know, tell me, what are the characteristics?" Jin Shan asked.

In other words, pig thieves usually run away with pigs on their backs, why? Because pigs walk slowly, the pig thieves don't want the pigs to swagger through the market, so that everyone can see it, so they take decisive action to avoid being discovered by others, so they take the way of carrying the pig, tie the pig, and run on their backs. Ugua said.

"Oh, is that so? It takes strength. Jin Shan said.

"That's right, a figure like a small one is not up to the mark at all, and the pig thieves are all tall and strong, and they can run away quickly with the pig on their backs. The small one is not good, I have a weak heart, I steal pigs, and people don't want me at all. The small one is to be a thief, and he has no ability to transfer, only to do what he can. ”

"I see! Looks like you can't afford to carry this pig. Jin Shan said.

"Adults are like mirrors in their hearts, it's really like this, the villain is skinny, and he is as tall as a gourd, how can he afford to carry it? Definitely not. Ugua said. He was trying to prove that what he said was true, and he even pretended to cough a few times, like an older teenager, and such clumsy acting skills failed to hide Jin Shan's eyes.

"Well, what you said makes sense, it makes sense, and I didn't expect this to happen. I also heard that the township said that you are good, innocent, and that you are poor, that you are not lazy, that you don't want to get rich, and that you don't have the capital to do business, right? If you are a tiger, you need a pair of wings, and with wings, you can fly high and far. Although your family is poor, it is only temporary, and when you have money, why worry about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law? The official will also be gracious and give you 100,000 yuan, you will use it to do business, and if you earn it in the future, you can pay it back, if you don't make it and lose money, the official will not pursue it, you will continue to work hard, and the official will think of other ways for you. What do you think? As for you, don't live up to the hard work of the official, and when you are developed in the future, you will help more people. Jin Shan said.

When all the officials heard this, they all pouted, but the boss was unwilling. Shuli and Master felt strange, what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this city lord of Dengcheng? He even started a bank. What is this operation? Is it to throw money into the water? Thrown into the water, there is still a sound, I am afraid that it will be given to those scumbags who do not seek progress, then it will be troublesome, it is really a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return.

If you don't understand, you don't understand, you still have to do it, so the official took 100,000 yuan, a full sixty or seventy catties. The money taken by the official opened his pocket, revealing the yellow money, shiny, very conspicuous, very shiny, and people liked it at first sight. For people who love money like life, this is life, with money there is life, and with money there is everything.

"Great! The old man is really a little reborn parent, and he is very in place and very generous. The small ones must burn high incense for the county lord in the morning and evening, and worship in the morning and evening. The gourd said in his mouth, thinking to himself that this was really a big pie falling from the sky.

I don't know what went wrong. This is really a link, and I can't imagine that I can make a small fortune. This official, everyone can say clearly, I see that I am faint, I am a turbid official, why can't I see the good and bad people clearly? Not only did he not pay a fine, but he gave a reward for the capital used to do business, which is really surprising! Besides, there is no money poured into the people in all dynasties, what does this dumb official want to do? No matter how much, get the money first.

He thought, I have been eating and drinking well all my life, I don't want to work, I like to prostitute and gamble, and I make the family property consume clean, and the family wealth is really scattered, and the family is surrounded by walls, and it is miserable! Who knew that when the time came, he would encounter such a confused official. It's okay like this, it's rare to be confused in the world.

Thinking of this, the gourd pounced on the money bag, grabbed the pocket, closed it with a rope, tightened the mouth of the money bag, tied it up, and then threw it on the shoulder, and then caught it on the shoulder, steadily, the gourd was happy in his heart, and he was about to leave the county government with a big stride.

"Slow, slow!" Jin Shan shouted.

Before he could take a step and leave the court quickly, he was suddenly stopped.

This voice shouted out, which startled the gourd, he really didn't expect this. It's like a hungry person who just got the bun and was stopped just about to start, and the bun didn't have a mouth yet, and stopped halfway, which is really embarrassing!

"Since you say that you are thin and weak, that is, short in stature, and unable to steal pigs, how can you afford to carry more than sixty pounds of copper coins? With such a heavy amount of money, you don't have any effort on your back, but it looks very quick and easy, tell me, how did you do it? ”

"This, this, this, this......"

"Also, just now the official asked you what method you used to steal pigs? The official didn't ask about the details, you can come together like a number of treasures, look very familiar, and at a glance, you are an expert. Saying that never stealing is a lie, and the official has long seen it, just to see if you are telling the truth and whether you are a liar. By observation, you are a pig thief? Do you still want to deny it? Jin Shan said.

Everyone was puzzled, Jin Shan didn't explain, the book wrote down Jin Shan's words, the gourd put down the money bag, lowered his head, and thought, it's over, it finally fell into the hands of the old hunter, I didn't expect this to be a trap, and I would be fooled! You should see money and not be moved, many of the wrongs you are guilty of are your own problems, you shouldn't see money, money can confuse people, make people's minds all blocked, not transparent, not clear and unclear, this problem can be cured with no medicine.

"Yes, my lord, that's a good idea! Pigs are small stealers. Ugua said.

"So, what about the pigs?"

"Sold."

"Sold to whom?"

"Sold to the old Shentou in the next village. He happened to buy pork for a happy event, so he sold it to him. Ugua said.

"So, is the pig still there?"

"Look for it now, it should still be there. The wedding event was held three days later, and the pig is still in his pen. Ugua said.

"Okay, come on, go to Old Man Shen's house to pick up the pig." Jin Shan ordered.

Sure enough, someone went to Lao Shentou's house to retrieve the pig, and then returned the pig to the plaintiff. Lao Shentou's family returned half of the money to buy pigs, which is to warn Lao Shentou that if he buys something in the future, he will see who sells it to him, and he will also inquire whether the thing is coming from or not.

The old man got the pig and was very happy! When people meet, they say that Jinshan County is good. The whole Deng Cheng knows it!
